This malfeasance in the handling of the Word of The God is exactly the way the the early logicians executed the system of Plato to turn metaphors into allegories that misrepresented the hermeneutic, the science of interpretation, to create doctrines believable on the surface, but inconsistent with the straightforward common sense of the Bible context. Taken individually, the props for this doctrine will not hold up when examined in the light of a literal, grammatical, historical, and cultural hermeneutic.
The whole Platonic persuasion takes the authority of Scripture's ability to interpret itself,, and removes it to the shoulders of the allegorizers who say, "We are the only agency who can interpret Scripture for you. You cannot read Scripture and find Biblical truths by yourself. To try to do so is anathema."
Therein is the great lie that Romanism perpetrates on its clientele, thus placing the reasonings of fallible, finite humans above the infallible, inerrant authority of the Preserved Word that The Great Jehovah places above His Own Name.
In the spiritual outpourings of David, speaking as carried by the Holy Spirit, and written as infallible Scripture:
"I will worship toward thy holy temple, and praise thy name for thy lovingkindness and for thy truth: for thou hast magnified thy word above all thy name" (Ps. 138:2 AV)(my emphases).
And as the Jesus, approaching the Cross, asked the Father for His diciple Apostles, and their spiritual progeny, and the method by which they should be preserved from corruption:
"I pray not that thou shouldest take them out of the world, but that thou shouldest keep them from the evil.
They are not of the world, even as I am not of the world.
Sanctify them through thy truth: thy word is truth" (Jn 17:14-16 AV).
And about sharing His Glory, Jehovah The Messiah says:
"I am the LORD: that is my name: and my glory will I not give to another, neither my praise to graven images. . . .
For mine own sake, even for mine own sake, will I do it: for how should my name be polluted? and I will not give my glory unto another" (Isa. 42:8, 48:11 AV).
*******
The cult of Romanism falsely claims that Mary will be elevated to a special throne of Heaven to share His Glory and administer grace to earthly humans, by the hands and will of the allegorizers. It is by this mechanism of manufacturing misguided metaphors that the leadership of the local church at Rome has gained direct control over half of the unregenerated "Christian" population in other places and in other churches together with their material resources, and menaced the rest of Christ-followers. IMHO.
For shame.
